I support this. Not only does it prevent dupes in suggestions, but it can also reduce unnecessary topics in QAS, BaG, HwS, etc.
It also lets people find buried iTopics

There was a duplicate of this topic, so bringing this up.

Support, being able to find if your suggestion is a duplicate without leaving scratch sounds like a good idea.

No support. Just use the search bar at the top on any scratch page, and after searched click on the tab forums.
that does not work
…That post was from 2014, it was possible then. There used to be a tab with “All”, “Projects”, “Studios”, “Users”, and “Forums”.

Yeah this got removed in 2016 when the search feature was replaced (it used to be on Google though).

Support. It's always annoying to check, so I support it.
I will Kill for this to be added again! (I'm kidding don't take the “kill” seriously)

Support since this can help me find duplicate posts, answered questions, and other topics I want to find on a school computer if I have one since most of them block GitHub powered websites.
And it won't be like any other painful method that I use.

Support! Searching for a forum duplicate of a discussion thread could make things easier than going outside of Scratch to use ocular instead (I like how ocular works better than Scratch tho, but I agree on this).

Scratch doesn’t have a forum search anymore though?

It still exists, just as a hyperlink, but sadly it does not work anymore.
There is HOWEVER, an alternative way to search in the forums: ScratchForumsBeta

It doesn’t work though, it broke.

The link exists still and the page, but the search function is broken, so I’m wrong on my other post.
It could be fixed however, ST has the resources to fix the search index for the forums.

Okay yeah I know the page still exists, and I was confused because you said:

So it sounded like you were saying that it still was functional and that it still existed.

I really need to put this on my signature since it's hard to find on ocular lel.
Also, ignore my cringey posts.
